For the second-straight year and third time overall, Missy Gannon hoisted the DGPT Championship trophy and the huge check that comes with it after a record-setting day in Charlotte, North Carolina.
The starting stroke advantages are gone and the race to a $35,000 check is on.
Ricky Wysocki and Kristin Tattar, both down a few strokes before play even began at the 2024 Disc Golf Pro Tour Championship presented by Barbasol, erased those starting deficits and both find themselves leading by two stokes with three rounds to go in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Missy Gannon had plans to go swimming when she got to the course on Sunday morning.
James Proctor asked his caddie what the situation was in the biggest moment of the weekend and made some plans himself.
Both delivered on those plans.
A thrilling finish was brewing from the first tee on Thursday morning at the 2024 Disc Golf Pro Tour — MVP Open x OTB and it happened in a big way Sunday at Maple Hill.
The tight battles will continue all the way until the end at Maple Hill with Kristin Tattar hanging on to her three-stroke lead in FPO and the co-leaders in MPO — Ricky Wysocki and Aaron Gossage — doing just enough to keep their names atop the leaderboard in Leicester, Massachusetts.
Both divisions had three-way ties after the first run through beloved Maple Hill with the field right behind them. FPO has a little separation, which doesn't mean much in Leichester, but MPO is still a logjam behind the new two co-leaders.
Both divisions have three-way ties at the top of the leaderboard after the first 18 of the four-round event, the final DGPT stop of the season with championship implications on the line, and the field is right behind them.
Handley entered Championship Sunday of the final DGPT+ event of the season with a one-stroke lead and dropped one of the hottest rounds of the day to roll to a three-stroke victory, her third Elite Series win of the season.
